Different Mortgage Rates and Programs

Take your pick!

February 19, 2021

The worst kinds of calls to get as a mortgage broker is when someone calls and asks for your best 5 year fixed rate. My answer typically is that it depends. Although I know what the rock bottom 5 year fixed rate is for that particular day, there is no guarantee that is what they […]

Just good enough is NOT good enough!

February 18, 2021

Sure just getting a passing grade will probably mean that you will graduate high school but just scraping by is not a recipe for success in life. I am sure there are many careers for you if you just want to put in your time, get a pay check and drink with your buddies. You […]

One of “Those” Days!

February 17, 2021

Let’s face it we all have one of those days where we just have to put on our big boy or big girl pants and put one foot in front of the other and just keep moving forward. It happens to the best of us. Just know that I am right there with you. Together […]

Buying or Selling

It’s all either marketing or sales

February 16, 2021

If you really think about it, everything you do is either marketing or sales. If you are married, you have made a sale. If you are single and on a dating platform then you’re marketing. If you employed for someone else then you have made a sale to get hired. If you are self employed […]

Similar but not equal

Not created equal

February 13, 2021

Sometimes when things appear similar on the surface are in fact vastly different. My twin daughters for example, both extremely smart but couldn’t be more different. My 5K run vs your 5K run, yes the distance may be the same but you could be training hills while I am running flats. My Nissan Pathfinder vs […]

Put in the work

The path of least resistance

February 11, 2021

I just love this quote, and really rings true when we are talking about your mortgage renewal. This is because it is so easy just to sign the mortgage renewal from the big 5 bank and get back to your day. Other than signing the renewal statement you don’t have to do anything else. However […]

On Goals and Commitments!

February 6, 2021

Most people know there are differences between goals and commitments but they may not know exactly what they are. You could have a goal to run 5K, but if you don’t make the commitment to getting up and putting your running shoes and going for the run you will never get there. Goals are the […]

February 5, 2021

We’ve all made mistakes in our lives from time to time. I am a married man, just ask my wife she can probably give you a list of my many mistakes and shortcomings. Like a lot of people I view most if not all mistakes as learning opportunities. However I think it is of vital […]

What is your “Endgame”?

May 7, 2019

Recently my wife and I took our son to see Avengers Endgame. It was awesome and I highly recommend that you see it. The movie was the cumulation of 11 years and 22 movies to get this point. The head of Marvel Studios Kevin Feige was the mastermind behind all of this success as he […]
